Yes snow we do have, But also nice summers for the most part by nice I mean 65 - 80 degree range, We also don't have heavy traffic, heavy pollution or a lot of crime, The standard of living is high but so is our income, I can look out my window and see the mountains, quad/snow mobile /ride my horses right from my back door into hundreds of square miles of crown land (federal land) I wouldn't trade it for the WORLD, Vulcun is towards farm land a flatter, less trees and a lot of private property, more heavily populated but still okay
